Kavanah Journal
How it worksCreate your journal
Your cloud. Your key.

Her memories stay private—even inside Google Drive.

Photos are encrypted on your device before backup. Google stores opaque ciphertext, the journal operator does not host your photo library, and only the app plus your vault passphrase can restore the originals.

Start the journal No public child profile. No advertising. No storage lock-in.
Built for real family life

A memory book that remains yours.

Encrypt from any photo app

Share selected images from Google Photos, Amazon Photos, your gallery, or a file manager directly into the encrypted Device Vault.

Bring your own cloud

Back up encrypted containers to your own Google Drive. Storage usage and account control stay between you and Google.

Private provider packages

Create a separate encrypted package containing only the sensitive photos and documents you choose for a doctor or provider.

Chronological storytelling

Capture exact quotes, people, places, letters, firsts, and everyday memories in a calm timeline.

Developmental observations

Record emerging skills and concerns with supporting moments—without turning childhood into a score or diagnosis.

Recovery is never paywalled

The free viewer, vault unlock, export, and decryption path remain available. Paid plans may add automation—not access to your own memories.

Business model

Privacy software, not another hosting company.

During the security beta, encrypted Google Drive backup and provider packages are included. A future Pro subscription can fund automatic verification, multi-device restore assistance, family administration, advanced books, and additional user-owned cloud connectors. It will not charge by storage capacity or block decryption after cancellation.
